Raised Differenlty

Chapter 1

-1987, Mansion Potter

A young man in his early thirties paced the gigantic living room. The door of the drawing room flew open and Alexander Potter looked up as two house elves entered.

'Have you been seen?' he asked the elf with the baby.

'No Mr. Potter', said the elf with the letter. 'This letter is for madam.'

'What letter?'

Petunia entered the room.

'Petunia, darling. We have received a letter.'

He walked over to her and handed her the letter.

Her eyes widened when she got the part about Lily and James.

She whimpered and burst into subs.

He waited until she calmed down.

'It's terrible, Petunia. But you haven' t read the last part yet.'

She nodded and took the letter.

'Okay', she said. 'We have to raise him. For Lily and James.'

'Are you sure?' he asked her.

'Yes. And then Eleanor will have someone too.'

Alexander glanced at the sleeping baby in the sofa.

'Okay, we'll do it', he said.

Petunia looked at him and they joined Eleanor.

Alexander wanted to say something else, but she remained silent, so he said nothing and immersed himself in the loss.

Thank you for reading my story, if you ask for more I will be happy to write further.
